Chapter 3

a/n okay here's chapter three!


I looked at the couch in shock. Where did she go? Did she run away? Did she get kidnapped? What happened?

"Caio!" A small light voice said from behind me.

I whipped around to find miss mystery girl sitting at one of the small rickety chairs eating...fish?

"Oh there you are!" I said, my voice sounded like a mans next to hers.

"Sì, io sono stato qui tutto il tempo!" Her soft voice said followed by a tinkling laugh that sounded like music, a flute or many the chimes. I'm getting way to mushy for my health.

I studied her, she had long messy brown hair that went down to her waist and faded into a dirty blonde, a little lighter than my hair. She had one hazel eye and one jade green eye, what is that called? Hetro-something, hetroromia? Oh ya! Heterochromia! Ya she had that. She had arched eyebrows and a young girl face, almond shaped eyes and tight lips. Surprisingly she had a nice tan. She must be able to manifest too because she had a light pink sweater that sort of wraps around you, you know it doesn't cover your shoulders? That one? She was wearing skinny jeans and some ugg boots. She was pretty.

"Do you have..." I said before slowly spreading out my wings. Her eyes widened every inch I opened them, my wings that is.

"Sì! Sì!" She said, then she spread out her wings. They were also a light pink, must be a newer experiment. They had little flecks of silver and white in them.

"Cool." I said under my breathe, " I'm Maximum Ride, but you can call me Max, who are you?"

Once again the girls eyes widened.

"Il Maximum Ride? Non posso credere che ti sto vedendo! Io sono Marzia!" The girl, or Marzia I think rushed excitedly.

"Hey, hey!" I cut her off from her now excessive murmuring and talking, she looked up at me, awe in her eyes,"Do you speak English?"

"Sì! Sì! Mean yes! Yes!" Marzia said, obviously uncertain of her English. I smiled at her and she smiled back.

"Let's see what there is to eat!" I said, opening up the fridge. I was hit by a strong smell of fish and meat.

"I already checked." Marzia said in her heavy accented voice, even though it was sort of hard to understand her with her accent, she still had that tinkling voice.

I giggled, yes GIGGLED! And then took out some pickled herring and ketchup.

"They have the weirdest ketchup here, way different from America, it's SUPER sweet!" I then proceeded to squirt it on my fish.

"Eww!" Marzia giggled.

That's how we spent the rest of our day, eating fish and ketchup and feasting on kanecka and limpa bread.

At around 14:00 or 2:00 PM, we decided to go down to the beach. Even though it was the middle of summer the water would be FREEZING so we just went down to wade and play in the sand. Right before we left Marzia changed into a strapless pink dress that looked more like a long shirt but it was a poofy dress, it stopped about halfway to her knees, and proofed out if she spun around, I didn't change, we were just going down to the beach!
We stepped out of the sommarstuga and walked down the path/road leading to the beach. Oddly enough no one was there, usually a lot of people were there. Naked. Cause that's just what you do in Sweden. You swim. Naked.

Marzia and I spent our time playing in the sand, splashing each other with water, and running away from the waves like little kids.

While Marzia and I were running away from another wave (yes we took our shoes off) there was a crash from behind us and we both shrieked. I quickly turned and got into fighting stance, ready to take on whatever came at us.
All of a sudden a hatted head came up (does that make sense?).

"Woohoo! Lets do it again!" It said as it threw its arms in the air.

"Umm..." I said uncertainly, as the person whipped around, yep that was a girl.

"Omigosh!" She shrieked, "You're Maximum Ride, the most powerful mutant EVER! It's such an honor to meet you! My names Elizabeth Logan, but you can call me Izzy Logan, or Izzy LoLo, or Izzy, or LoLo, or Lola, or-" I cut her off by putting my hand on her mouth. I slowly removed it and studied her, just like I did to Marzia.

She had a grey beanie on and underneath had neon green hair with purple streaks, her eyebrows were black and sort of straight and she had neon green eyes. She was about 6 ft tall, a little shorter than me but much taller than Marzia whom was about 5'3. Izzy was wearing a teen titans t-shirt that was ripped on the sides and had those converse shoe/pants (on my profile).

"So, Izzy-" I started.

"Izzy Logan!" She cut me off.

"Okay..." I said, "Izzy Logan...do you have a group?" Her joyful face fell.

"No, I had some friend in the school in Paris but they died before you bust everybody out."

I remember that, I blew up every building within a 10 mile radius, a small smile flickered over my face.

"Max!" Marzia said waving her hand in front of my face, "MAX!" It sounded more like Mass with her accent.

"Sooo..." Izzy Logan said, "Can I join your flock?"

"Well the 'Flock' left me two years ago and I got captured by the school, right now it's just Marzia and me, so it's more of a 'team' than a flock."

"That didn't really answer my question."

"Sure!" I said smiling.

"Yes!" Izzy Logan hissed, doing the 'ca-ching!' arm sign.

Marzia and I smiled at her.

"Hope you do not mine sleeping on couch!" Marzia said brightly. We all looked at each other and then burst out laughing.

"Com'on, lets go back to the sommarstuga!" I said laughing. And we walked off into the sunset to live happily ever after. NOT. But of course, we didn't know that.
